Kithmas Comes Early: Nike’s Holiday AF1s Are Strictly for the Kids

Ronnie Fieg’s wrapping up the holidays early with a kids-exclusive Air Force 1 that feels more runway than recess. Part of the wider “Kithmas” Holiday 2025 campaign, the Kith x Nike Air Force 1 Low takes seasonal spirit and filters it through an upscale, preppy lens.

Dressed in night maroon suede with black spruce overlays, this pint-sized pair fuses luxe textures with nostalgic street flavour. A white Swoosh and subtle obsidian hits throw it back to that golden mid-‘90s to early 2000s Air Force 1 energy. But details like that croc-embossed Kith logo and debossed branding on the toebox is what elevate it from playground-ready to premium grail status.

What makes this drop more than just another kids’ release is the story behind it. As Ronnie Fieg shared on Instagram, this project is deeply personal, rooted in nostalgia, legacy and the desire to “pass the torch to the next generation.” Growing up, Nike was his brand, the one that made collecting feel magical. Now, as a father, he’s channelling that same energy into something new: sneakers designed not for himself, but for his daughters and by extension, all kids. “If we’re excited to buy a pair for our kids,” he wrote, “then we’ll be excited to explain why they’re special and unique to them.” That’s the heart of the Kith x Nike Holiday ‘25 collection: a love letter to youth, to heritage, and to the memories we’re just beginning to create with the next wave of sneakerheads.

Ronnie gave us a sneak peek via X (formerly Twitter), and sneakerheads instantly clocked the FOMO. Let’s be honest, if these dropped in adult sizes, they’d fly faster than a Travis Scott raffle. For now it seems that they’re exclusive to the future sneaker elite, coming in at Grade School ($115/£90), Pre-School ($90/£65), and Toddler ($55/£40) sizes only.

Set to land Holiday 2025 via Kith’s usual channels, this marks another notch in the ever-evolving Kith x Nike timeline. To stay ahead of future Kith x Nike releases, be sure to download The Sole Supplier app!
